Do the dimensions contain the mean values

Post by FABL »

Dear Admin and Fellows,
I am seeking guidance concerning the following two issues. I would truly appreciate if you help me in this regard.
1. My question is, in the formative measurement model and in a second order, what values does each dimension of a particular construct contain? Does each dimension encompass the mean value of all the responses of all the items measuring that particular dimension of a construct?

2. At the disjoint two staged approach or Embedded two staged approach, the new latent variable scores attained after running the model are pasted on the original data file (comma delimited) after deleting certain columns on that original data file. Could you kindly guide as to what columns on that original data file are replaced by the new latent variable scores?

Best regards,
